i really don't understand the 1 account concept. Its 2 card, of 2 different merchant, with 2 x service tax(now), and having to make payment on both cards separately. So why is it just 1 account with combined limit?
i had uob vox and uob one previously, single account, single acc limit, single payment although 2 cards, 2 service tax. why cant maybank simplify it like this for better understanding

isnt maybank2cards now the same as your UOB Vox & One?

why mbb doesnt allow combined payment for 2 cards is because of (probably) payment allocation.
imagine this:
Amex: RM150 outstanding
Visa: RM75 outstanding.
if both combined, and I pay RM70, how does the system know which card you're paying for?
If i pay RM100, which card am i paying for? if set to offset Visa first, then the excess RM25 goes to Visa or auto to Amex?
now, expand this problem for IBG/cheque payment from 3rd party banks.
this is why each card has its own card number to uniquely identify itself.
treat it as this:
Customer account = you, based on NRIC or other IDs <-- parent account
Card numbers = sub-account for the products (visa/mc/amex) that MBB "resell" to you. <-- child account
